Amelia & Pauline who were swept to their deaths 1,000 feet north of this marker in the East Riverside Slide Sunday March 3rd, 1963,
while honoring the call to Christian duty of his pastorate in Silverton, Colorado.   In honor of the many friends and neighbors
who risked their lives to save them and recover their bodies.   A symbol of the Christian faith that unites men in Christian
love in times like these.   Erected by the churches of Silverton, Ouray, Ridgway and the men, women, and children who love these mountains.
